I just checked my internet speed ....

I can't look at these too closely.

It always makes me sick that despite having Cablevision, mine is so slow. My house must be the last leaf on the last twig of the last branch of the cable.


JOE--what kind of internet service do you have?

I have both Cabelvision/Optonline and Verizon Fios.

Optonline must have upgraded users for free. I noticed on the bill it's called Ultra101 but I had replaced the modem with a Motorola Surfboard

Bob,

I use the speed for buying/selling audio gear. :)
 
Right now my little 50mbit pipe is getting sucked dry from various downloads. Bleh. I need moar bw!!!
 
George, what do you use all that speed for?

* This is a very serious question; I'm dying to know. ...Joe and Ray did not realize the seriousness of my question.

I used to use it so I could brag about having a fast internet connection, unfortunately these days, lots of people have a fast connection, so it's not as fun.
what else do I use it for? nadda.

For me, if I was into super high speed, it would be for downloading hi-def movies (3D, 4K, etc.) and hi-res audio files (DSD, ...).
But I'm not, so I don't need high speed Internet. Some of my very best friends are super high speed Internet users.
...And they use multiple computers and screens. ...Highly advanced technological people with a flair on the future.
